The 2022 edition of Armstrong MetalFest marks the first since 2019, after the event was forced to pause in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic.

Further ticketing information can be found via the festival's official website. Organizers share that 2020 ticketholders will have their stubs honoured for 2022.

"We are so very pleased to present the 2022 lineup! It's pretty much the 2020 lineup just two years later! We decided it was only fair to offer everyone the invitation back since Covid took the first one," festival organizers wrote in a release.

For both its indoor live event and outdoor camping components, Armstrong MetalFest will be following the BC Centre for Disease Control's COVID-19 public health guidelines, which can be reviewed here.
